This week's Deadpod came as the result of two requests I received this week - its not unusual to get requests but it is to get two requests for the same show, both from brothers in Europe! Its a fine show, and even though I'd played a show from this year recently I think its worth hearing this one. Besides, something in the ether is wanting me to play this so here it is :) This comes to us from Wembley Arena in London England, from October 30th, 1990. This week's first set, features a nice start to the show, as well as a fine Valley Road by Hornsby to close the set. I hope you enjoy this one..

sincere thanks - the only show any of my kids attended (my wife was 6 months pregnant at the time with Callum our youngest) - he seems to have developed a guitar style that seems very familiar ;)appreciate all you do

That show rocks...my first listen! Also, thanks for your respect to the synchronisity (sp?) of the requests...trully brought some personal touch to the comments. I remember my first show, mom and dad took me to soldier field 6/'93...I was hooked! I should query mom to see what bands I heard from her tummy!

Loved every bit of this set. I particularly enjoyed the piano work on Brown-Eyed Women...it made this version quite interesting. Also liked Bruce's accordion work: it truly makes this era of Dead music rather unique. During the Jam before Valley Road, it seemed like the band wanted to join in with Bruce a few times, buy they just couldn't seem to meld (Bruce was kinda all over the place). But, it was a fun listen!
